|content=@DavidDeutschOxf @rickygervais Fascinating point. Just to riff... if you add a potential term I’m not sure Ricky is wrong. In essence, we aren’t taking into account the potential for a sudden gain of ability in chimps. If our minds are distant while our brains are proximate, a potential term solves this, no? | |content=@DavidDeutschOxf @rickygervais Fascinating point.

|content=@DavidDeutschOxf @rickygervais Exactly. But even small changes in primary sequences can have *enormous* changes in realized physiology, morphology and behavior (e.g. homeotic mutations, telomeres, rhodopsin) so we don’t know how such a term would impact the meaningful inter-species distance. | |content=@DavidDeutschOxf @rickygervais Exactly.
